New life for old livery

West Texas Trail Museum Director Cynthia Clonch was on hand Monday morning to guide the installation of a refurbished heavy business or livery wagon (circa mid to latter 1800s) into a place of honor in the museum. Doug and Jo Kissack, who rebuild these conveniences of the past, had asked if she would like to display the wagon for a period of time. The rig is rebuilt to many of the original specifications with a leather top and seat as well as wrapped dash and a luggage compartment in the rear. It is painted beautifully in a glossy black. The wagon was broken down and carried through the front doors before being reassembled by the Kissack team. Be sure to drop by and take a look at this and so many other attractions at the West Texas Trail Museum this month.
